Highlight Deceased Donors in a different color or italicize

8 votes

It would be extremely helpful if donors who are marked as deceased showed up in a different color font or were italicized so that it would be obvious in any report or list.

For example, I was working on merging duplicates and was given the option to merge a deceased donor with a spouse (nowhere on the merge screen does it indicate a donor is deceased.) I happened to know this donor was deceased, so I tested the system to see if it would allow me to merge the spouse into the deceased donor's record. It allowed me to do so, which also set the active donor as "do not contact" which is not what I would want to happen as the living spouse is still very active. If the deceased spouse were a different colored font, it would alert me of such and I would know to treat these records differently. Thanks for considering!
